Lying by omission is still technically truthful, how can you reconcile your proposition with the fact that the MSM clearly downplayed Clinton's shortcomings while highlighting Trump's at every moment?

Why not? The science is far from settled. In much the same way that the media leans left, so does academia. Academia is not immune from corruption, and dare I say, academia is a worse swamp than Washington.

The MSM needs some repair, but I'd say that repair should be moving away from the "both sides do it" and "two sides to every argument" mentality and delivering the truth. On issues like climate change, equal weight does not need to be given to the "it's a hoax" crowd.
